This overhauls `std::run` to instead run on top of libuv. This is *not* in a mergeable state, I've been attempting to diagnose failures in the compiletest suite. I've managed to find a fair number of bugs so far, but I still don't seem to be done yet.
Notable changes:
* This requires upgrading libuv. From the discussion on #6567, I took libuv master from a few days ago, applied one patch to fix process spawning with multiple event loops in libuv, and pushed to my own fork
* The build system for libuv has changed since we last used it. There's some extra checkout from a google build system which apparently does all the magic if you don't want to require autotools, and the google system just requires python. I updated the Makefile to get this build system and build libuv with it instead. This is untested on windows and arm, and both will probably need to see some improvement.
* This required adding some pipe bindings to libuv as well. Currently the support is pretty simple and probably completely unsafe for pipes, but you at least get read/write methods. This is necessary for capturing output of processes.
* I didn't redesign `std::run` at all, I simply tried to reimplement all the existing functionality on top of libuv. Some functions ended up dying, but nothing major. All uses of `std::run` in the compiler still work just fine.
I'm not quite sure how the rest of the runtime deals with this, but I marked process structures as `no_send` because the waiting/waking up has to happen in the same event loop right now. If processes start migrating between event loops then very bad things can happen. This may be what threadsafe I/O would fix, and I would be more than willing to rebase on that if it lands first.
Anyway, for now I wanted to put this up for review, I'm still investigating the corruption/deadlock bugs, but this is in an *almost* workable state. Once I find the bugs I'll also rebase on the current master.
This moves all local_data stuff into the `local_data` module and only that
module alone. It also removes a fair amount of "super-unsafe" code in favor of
just vanilla code generated by the compiler at the same time.
Closes#8113
There were two main differences with the old libuv and the master version:
1. The uv_last_error function is now gone. The error code returned by each
function is the "last error" so now a UvError is just a wrapper around a
c_int.
2. The repo no longer includes a makefile, and the build system has change.
According to the build directions on joyent/libuv, this now downloads a `gyp`
program into the `libuv/build` directory and builds using that. This
shouldn't add any dependences on autotools or anything like that.

`rustpkg build` et al were only checking one directory up to see if it
was in a dir named "src". Ditch that entirely and instead check if the
cwd is descended from any of the workspace paths. Besides being more
intelligent about whether or not something is a workspace, this also
allows for package ids composed of multiple path components.

This removes the stacking of type parameters that occurs when invoking
trait methods, and fixes all places in the standard library that were
relying on it. It is somewhat awkward in places; I think we'll probably
want something like the `Foo::<for T>::new()` syntax.
Fixes for #8625 to prevent assigning to `&mut` in borrowed or aliasable locations. The old code was insufficient in that it failed to catch bizarre cases like `& &mut &mut`.

`UnsafeAtomicRcBox` → `UnsafeArc` (#7674), and `AtomicRcBoxData` → `ArcData` to reflect this.
Also, the inner pointer of `UnsafeArc` is now `*mut ArcData`, which avoids some transmutes to `~`: i.e. less chance of mistakes.
As for now, rekillable is an unsafe function, instead, it should behave
just like unkillable by encapsulating unsafe code within an unsafe
block.
This patch does that and removes unsafe blocks that were encapsulating
rekillable calls throughout rust's libs.
Fixes#8232
This means that fewer `transmute`s are required, so there is less
chance of a `transmute` not having the corresponding `forget`
(possibly leading to use-after-free, etc).
